Calling all dreamers! We are launching a participatory research study to explore the hidden dimensions of human consciousness through first-hand experiences of:
Lucid Dreams: A dream in which the dreamer becomes aware that they are dreaming while the dream is still happening. In many lucid dreams, the dreamer can consciously influence or control the events, environment, or characters within the dream. These dreams often feel vivid, hyper-real, and emotionally charged
Out-of-Body Experiences (OBEs): The sensation of perceiving the world from a location outside of one's physical body. People often describe floating above their body, traveling to other places, or moving through different dimensions. OBEs can occur spontaneously during sleep, meditation, near-death experiences, or moments of extreme physical or emotional stress.
Remote Viewing: The practice of gathering information about a distant or unseen target - such as a place, object, or event - using extrasensory perception (ESP) rather than the physical senses. It typically occurs in a waking or lightly meditative state, but can sometimes happen during altered states like dreams or deep relaxation.
Prophetic or Precognitive Dreams: Possible glimpses of future events before they happen. These dreams may depict specific scenes, people, or circumstances that later occur in real life. Sometimes the symbolic meaning becomes clear only after the event has unfolded. These dreams often leave a strong emotional impression and a sense of “knowing.”
Symbolic Dreams: Dreams that use imagery, metaphor, and archetypes to convey deeper emotional or spiritual truths. Instead of representing literal events, symbolic dreams communicate messages through symbols - such as water representing emotions, a house representing the self, or an animal symbolizing instincts or personal traits. These dreams often invite introspection and interpretation.
Dream Visions Related to World Affairs: These are dreams that seem to connect to larger societal, environmental, or global events. Dreamers may receive symbolic or literal visions of significant shifts in the world - such as political changes, natural disasters, technological advances, or social movements. Sometimes these dreams feel collective, tapping into a broader human consciousness or energetic field.
Who We're Looking For
Submit your story and help us uncover patterns in human consciousness! Participants who have had vivid experiences in any of the above categories and are willing to share detailed records of their events. Both seasoned lucid dreamers and newcomers are welcome.
Why This Matters
By compiling these accounts, we aim to:
Understand the language of symbolic dreams and visions
Investigate potential collective consciousness or precognitive phenomena
Explore the frontiers between subjective experience and objective reality
Anonymity and Ethics
All submissions can be anonymized. No personally identifying information is required unless the participant chooses to provide it. Consent will be requested if quotes or specific experiences are shared publicly.
